Julius Bauer (1831-1894), a major instrument maker, importer, and dealer established a music store and manufacturing facility in Chicago and is the earliest manufacturer of brass instruments in that city. His son William M. Bauer expanded the business as importers of brass instruments and the manufacture of pianos. The firm also established a retail store in NYC in 1868. All brass instruments signed “J. Bauer, Chicago” were made prior to 1866 in Chicago by the Bauer firm and are considered CW era instruments as opposed to those signed “J. Bauer & Co.”
